Description: PCI TV-tuner, the version I have does analog NTSC from cable or antenna input.

Unfortunately, it's not recognized by V4L. I get this message in dmesg:

# dmesg
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
phy0: hwaddr 00:40:f4:f8:83:e4, RTL8185vD + rtl8225z2
saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.14 loaded
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:09.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
saa7130[0]: found at 0000:00:09.0, rev: 1, irq: 17, latency: 32, mmio: 0xe2000000

saa7134:
saa7130[0]: subsystem: 1131:0000, board: UNKNOWN/GENERIC [card=0,autodetected]
saa7130[0]: board init: gpio is 80c008
saa7130[0]: Huh, no eeprom present (err=-5)?
saa7130[0]: i2c scan: found device @ 0xc0 [tuner (analog)]
saa7130[0]: i2c scan: found device @ 0xc2 [???]

"modprobe saa7134 card=3 tuner=0" works. Many other tuner numbers worked, too, with card=3. Video and audio quality is good.

Strange -- the video output doesn't appear on the 'Television' output -- but instead appears on 'Composite2' output. You can only tune channels by using 'Input Configuration', switching to a blue-screen 'Television' and then switching back to 'Composite' to view it.
